The 9-year-old Scottsdale girl raised almost $10,000 in lemonade stand sales from the first day of summer to Oct. 1.

She was the grand prize winner of the “Take a Lemonade Stand” program, which donated 100 lemonade stands to Arizona kids this summer to teach them entrepreneurial skills and instill a spirit of community giving, according to a press release.

Cundiff has donated 100 percent of her profits to the Scottsdale-based Colleen's Dream Foundation, which was started by her mom and dad to raise money for ovarian cancer research.

For this family, the cause hits close to home.

The non-profit serves as a legacy to Chloe’s grandmother, Colleen Drury, who died from ovarian cancer when Chloe was 6.

"They had the most incredible relationship, friendship and bond," said Nicole Cundiff, Chloe's mother and CEO of Colleen’s Dream Foundation. "Chloe went to a lot of my mom's doctors appointments."

Colleen was diagnosed in 2007, Nicole said. She was diagnosed after a trip to the emergency room. She died in early 2013 as the foundation was established, Nicole Cundiff said, adding that symptoms and signs of the cancer were missed by other doctors she had seen previously.

Nicole said her and her husband decided to start the non-profit because they did not want other families to go through the same thing.

"The best part of that was my mom was still alive," Nicole Cundiff said. "I think for her that gave her a lot of peace."

Nicole said her mom was heartbroken about the things she would miss in her grandchildren's' lives.

For Chloe, fundraising is something she does not only in memory of her grandmother, who she calls "Gigi", but also for others with family affected by ovarian cancer.

"I fee like whenever I'm able to do stuff, it helps other girls so they don’t have to lose their mom or grandma, and try to keep thinking about that," Chloe said. "I have this little voice inside my head that tells me I can do more."

Chloe said while her fundraising efforts didn't come easy, what she learned made her hard work that much sweeter.

"I learned so many things from my lemonade journey,” she said in a press release. "I met some very nice and generous people on my journey, but I also set many lofty goals and strived to achieve them."

Chloe has always been interested in being a part of Colleen’s Dream Foundation, even before the lemonade stand, her mother said.

Chloe would sell cookies with her friends and give all the profits to her mother for the foundation. Even as a straight A student and club soccer player, Chloe wanted to be as involved as possible.

"She wants to do really big things, and she totally has that in common with my mom," Nicole said.

Chloe is one of 100 lemonade stands donated to Arizona kids by bluemedia to encourage entrepreneurial skills and community giving. She became the grand-prize winner, having raised $9,438.

Her first lemonade stand was outside the foundation offices, and Nicole did not expect a large turnout. She said Chloe made hundreds that day.

"It ended up snowballing, and her attitude was that she couldn’t get enough of it," she said.

From there, Chloe set up her lemonade stand at numerous busineses, including The Henry, The Sparkle Bar, TGen, CBRE, Cushman & Wakefield and Hines.

Now, Chloe is taking her entrepreneurial skills to a new market, recently starting a cookie business. She plans on putting the money made in this new business toward ovarian cancer research also.

The money from Colleen’s Dream Foundation goes to TGen to further research for early detection of ovarian cancer.

Eight-year-old Peytynn Gomez was the second-place winner, having raised $3,257 for Mountain Charter School of Flagstaff through her lemonade stand. And 9-year-old Makayla Aiello is the third-place winner, having raised $1,397 for the Tempe-based Melonhead Foundation, a nonprofit that supports the needs of children with cancer and their families.
